Abstract:
Preventive treatment of diseases is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) concept that conforms to the demand of modern healthcare emphasizing prevention. This concept, however, calls for close and orderly collaboration between general hospitals and primary community healthcare institutions, in order to encourage coordinated regional development. The authors described the new healthcare mode of " One Center, One Platform, and One Network" jointly built and run by Dongguan Municipal Health Bureau and Dongguan TCM Hospital. This practice has pioneered a full-range, closed-loop and one-stop service chain featuring preventive treatment. Such an innovative TCM health management system has realized information interconnection of preventive treatment, and upgraded the capacity and effectiveness of community medical services, hence expanding the number of beneficiaries.
